Well I have a solution but you probably won't like it. As far as I know it's the only way to do it.

Every other line increment a counter variable by 2. Put everything in a try block and when an error occurs put up a dialog with the value of the counter.

Yeah, it's a hell of a kludge but I don't think there is any other way. Here's an example:
----
set lineNum to 1
try
set lineNum to 3
-- do other things here
set lineNum to 5
on error
set lineNum to 5
display dialog "An error occured at line number" & lineNum
end try
----

Hello list,



I need to write a script in which I want to retrieve the current line number
of the script, if the script is being executed from script debugger, so that
if an error occurs, a dialog can be displayed or a report can be generated,
which says which line number caused the error, so that a person can directly
go to that line and may inspect the cause of the error without going through
the Apple Event Log.




Thanks in advance.
